Naish made his most visible parliamentary mark on 20 June 2025, voting against the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill at Third Reading -- one of five rebel votes on that legislation in a single day. His position was consistent: he backed amendments that would have closed the voluntary starvation loophole, and voted against the bill's final passage, placing him among Labour MPs who opposed the legislation on safeguarding grounds rather than principle against assisted dying itself. Otherwise he is a 97.5% party-line voter, backing the government on the King's Speech, steel nationalisation, and asylum support rule changes.

His participation rate of 76% sits somewhat below the Commons average, but his speech record -- 252 contributions across 160 debates -- suggests he is more active in debate than his voting attendance implies. Economy and jobs dominate his speaking topics, followed by local government and defence. He sits on the International Development Committee. On votes, he leans strongly toward workers' rights and progressive taxation, but scores low on parliamentary scrutiny and Lords oversight measures, suggesting he generally defers to the executive rather than pressing for checks on it.

Locally, Naish has been notably active. He raised sewage infrastructure investment in Parliament, championed a £200m SEND training programme after publishing a 29-recommendation report, and pressed on M1 Junction 24, pothole funding, and Tollerton Park contamination. Local coverage in the West Bridgford Wire is consistently positive, reflecting a casework-heavy approach to the role. Data on his voting record extends from July 2024; news sentiment across the past 90 days covers 41 articles, weighted toward economy and cost-of-living topics.
